Callisto

Operated by: Variety Cruises

The Motor Yacht Callisto recently joined the Variety Cruises fleet and is true to her name: Elegant. Classic. And distinctively charming, offering a warm ambience reflecting the finest traditions of seafaring. She was fully refit before her 2000 re-launch, renovated between March and July 2015 and offers 17 finely appointed outside cabins for just 34 guests. Callisto complies with the latest SOLAS regulations for international voyages and state-of-the-art stabilisers allow for safe and comfortable voyages. The yacht’s public areas, including the dining room, a spacious lounge and bar - both surrounded by picture windows - are homely and generous, decorated with rich fabrics, handsome woodwork, gleaming brass and fine works of art. Life on board centres around the indoor and outdoor lounges and the library, with its wraparound windows which provide the perfect environment for relaxation. The yacht two sun decks offer generous spaces for sunbathing and a swimming platform allows for easy and safe swimming off the ship when in sheltered bays.
